Does this caulker signing/ rumour worry you ?

Not a dig at anyone or anything I really hope this is true just something doesn't sound right !
No arguements just a debate
If true and he signs for under 10 mill

Why would spurs let a very promising centre back like caulker go when they are short on numbers at the back ?
Why would he come here when he could more than likely get European football at another club ?
Why is a touted future England captain going so cheap ?

Fair play what a signing this would be :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Why would it worry?
Spurs signing a Romanian CB for the same price
Wants to play week in week out and join the ambition here
9m isn't cheap

Spurs want CL football now, not 3-4 years when Caulker peaks. Villas Boas lost his job at Chelsea trying to get rid of the old and replace with new. The transition phase didn't go well and they panicked and got shot of him. Then the likes of Luiz came good after getting stick during their adaptation phase. However for Boas it was too late and a learning curve of the ruthless world that is football management.

At Spurs he won't make the same mistakes. Es replacing Caulker with a proven Romanian international who can help them now and is good enough.

It is a great signing :ayatollah:
Feels a bit unreal we are attracting this calibre of player :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
Worry was probably the wrong word :?

Because they are getting a further £85m for Bale and they have other players in mind!
